Clinician CPG Utilisation Patterns

More than nine in ten participants rated PIC CPGs as applicable or highly applicable to their healthcare setting, with no significant differences by role, setting, experience, or location. Clinicians with fewer than 10 years of experience used CPGs weekly at a higher rate (74.8%) than those with 10 or more years (58.3%). Victorian respondents showed consistently higher CPG utilisation than those from other states across all usage metrics. Specialists in training were the heaviest CPG users, with 86.3% using them at least weekly compared with 59.3% of other professionals. Allied health professionals were the least likely group to use PIC CPGs, with 22.7% reporting non-use. Awareness of PIC CPGs was near-universal among survey respondents, with only 1.3% unaware and 4.4% having never used them. Nearly two-thirds of respondents used PIC CPGs at least weekly, and one-quarter used them daily.
